A EarJackTM adapter (incl. ear molds, ambient microphone and in-ear speaker)
A1 To attach the earJack
uAttach the ear molds to the earJack™ adapters by first hooking the lower hinge of the
earJack™ adapter into the mold (Fig 1), then pushing the upper part firmly into the mold
until it clicks (Fig 2). By correctly connecting these, you will ensure a tight seal and proper
operation of the headset’s hearing protection.
A2 To insert ear molds in the ears
uThe ear mold marked red is for your right ear, the ear mold marked blue is for your left ear.
uPlace the neckloop over your head and insert the ear mold into your outer ear with the
opening pointing into your ear canal (Fig 3).
uTwist the ear mold slightly to insert it fully into your ear (Fig 4). Ensure that the ear molds
are well inserted and locked in the concha (Fig 5). Press softly on the earjack to remove the
remaining air in the ear channel and ensure a good seal.

A3 To remove the earjack from the ear
uHold the ear mold by the earjack adapter and withdraw carefully from the ear, using a slight
upward movement to avoid a rapid pressure drop.

Regularly adjust the air pressure within the ear by breaking the seal between the
ear-channel and the ear-shells (for example by making jaw movements)

A4 To attach windscreens to the earJacks
uWhen using FreeCom 7100 outdoors, snap-on foam windscreens significantly reduce the
wind noise generated by turbulence around the microphones located on each earJack™
adapter (Fig 6).
uWhen attaching these windscreens, ensure that the snappers are inserted precisely into both
slots on the adapter (Fig 6).
A5 To maintain the system
uRemove the earJack™ adapter from the ear mold by pressing the snap lock springs together
(Fig 7) and withdrawing the adapter, starting at the top (Fig 8).
uClean and disinfect the ear molds with soap and water. Never use water or other liquids to
clean the earJack™. Let ear molds dry fully before use.

B1 To place the boom microphone
uAdjust the boom microphone to sit within 1 cm of your mouth, close to your upper lip.
uEnsure that the microphone sound inlet, marked with a white dot points towards your
mouth (Fig 9) to avoid any twisting of the boom microphone.
uThe boom microphone sound inlet has to be placed always parallel to the mouth (Fig 9).
uThe boom microphone can be placed on the left or on the right side (Fig 10).
B2 To use / mount / remove the windscreen
uTo keep the windscreen in position, the boom microphone is equipped with a Velcro
part (Fig 11).
uTo mount the windscreen to, or remove it from, the boom microphone, lift the windscreen
over the Velcro part and pull it on or remove it from the microphone (Fig 11).

C Control Box
C1 To turn the system on
uTo insert the battery, turn the battery door counter-clockwise to the "battery symbol“
(Fig 11) and remove the battery door.
uInsert the battery with its positive (+) pole pointing outwards (Fig 12). Push the battery
door back into the control box and turn it clockwise.
uWith the battery door in position "0“ the system is off (Intercom is active without volume
control).
uWith the battery door in position "I“ (Fig 13), the intercom and the ambient sound
awareness are active and the volume can be adjusted for both of them separately.
uA beep indicates correct operation.
C2 Microphone VOX adaptation
uWhen the VOX system of the audio panel is switched ON, adjust the sensitivity of the voice
activated switch with the dedicated knob on the audio panel. This will ensure that the
microphone is switched ON as soon as any speech is pronounced.

C Control Box
C3 Battery end-of-life
uWhen battery power runs low, the system signals this with a beep every 30 secs. Shortly
before powering down, the frequency of the beeps is increased.
uIf the battery is dead, or if the battery is not present, or if the system is off (position "0"),
the FreeCom 7100 behaves as a headset with passive hearing protection and intercom
works without volume control.
C4 To control the Intercom volume
uBy default, the + - buttons (Fig14) allow to change the Intercom audio volume.
uIntercom levels can be adjusted 2 levels up and 7 levels down from the default position.
u3 beeps signal indicates when the maximum or minimum level is reached.
